Dawn Randazzo: I've never seen beadwork like this. The beads are strung through the leather, like sewn into it.

Brandon Moonin:  Speculates that this could be a cap for a young girl at first menses or for marriage. Could qualify as head dress or ceremonial object. 

Brandon Moonin: Sugt'stun name "Nacarpak"
Measurements: 39,5 x 14 x 11 cm
